I was on the escalator in a market. There was an old man who was about five or six people in the front of me. People behind him were all in a hurry and saw him as a rock. The old man knew these clearly and tried hard to step aside.
I remember…Sometimes when walking or driving behind an older person, I’ve gotten impatient and upset.
“I’m sorry. Please forgive me!” said the old man, “I don’t mean to hold you up.” He then tried his best to get off the escalator.
I suddenly saw this in a whole new light. I felt sick to my stomach. The old man was apologizing to everyone, when we should have helped him to calm his fears.
One by one, people went around him quickly. By the time I got to him, I asked, “Sir, can I help you?”
The man thought for a while, then said, “Well, yes, thank you!”
I placed my hand under his left arm and walked away from the rush of people quickly.
“So what are you shopping for, sir?”
“Oh, today is Mother’s Day. I want to buy something for my neighbor. She’s a single mother and she is always so nice to me.” he said, stopping suddenly as he searched his pocket.
“Oh, it’s here! I always carry them with me,” he said. Then he took out some business cards and handed me one which read:
“John Smith.
Friend to all…enemy to no one!
I said a prayer（祈祷）today and you were the answer.
Thank you!”
“That’s for you,” he said. “Thanks for stopping to help an old man.”

When I was six, Dad brought home a dog one day, who was called “Brownie”. My brothers and I all loved her and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games. Brownie, in return loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around.
One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up one of Dad’s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl,” she looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes.
Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet, she went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she’d let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we’d be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. she never barked or tried to get away.
